Tofu has a long history, special flavozrs, high nutritional value and physiology functions as a traditional Chinese food. In this work, a new automatic tofu machine was designed to product tofu more conveniently at home. This household automatic tofu machine is developed and presented on the basis of the existing soybean milk machine. It can achieve the automation operation including squatting, broken uncongealed tofu, pressing and other actions using mechanical and electrical control scheme. The household automatic tofu machine not only can make soy milk, uncongealed tofu, plaster tofu, lactone tofu, but also can achieve the function of self-cleaning.
